...The hygromycin phosphotransferase gene (Hph) was amplified from pRF-HU2 (Frandsen et al., 2008) using primer pairs GW-hph-F1/GW-hph-R1 and Hph-P4-F/Hph-P4-R....

...The promoter, pgpdA, was amplified from plasmid pRF-HU2E (Frandsen et al., 2008) using primer pair GW-pgpdA-F1/GW-pgpdA-R1 and inserted into pDONRTM-221 generating pRM253....

...We generated an entry vector (pRM253) derived from pDONRTM-221 containing the strong, constitutive fungal promoter PgpdA (Frandsen et al., 2008)....

...To date a number of molecular tools for genetic manipulation in fungi have been described (Abe et al., 2006; Catlett et al., 2003; Frandsen et al., 2008; García-Pedrajas et al., 2008; Geu-Flores et al., 2007; Paz et al., 2011; Shafran et al., 2008)....

...Several laboratories have solved this problem by dividing the replacement constructs into two, a technique known as bipartite gene-targeting or split-marker recombination [6- 8]. In this technique, the two HRS's are fused with two thirds of either the 3' or 5'end of the selection marker gene, by fusion-PCR [ 9 ]....

...The use of Proofreading DNA polymerase is essential when making targeted genome modifications in fungi, due to the close spacing of fungal genes [26], which often means that the HRS extends into neighbouring genes or their regulatory sequences....

...Contrary to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where 30 bp is sufficient, many filamentous fungi require longer HRS [1], eg Fusarium graminearum needs 400 bp [2] 1500 bp is reported for Aspergillus niger [3] and around 1000 bp for Neurospora crassa [4]....
